Are you guys kidding? This is one of the craziest occurrences in LA history, up there with the river flowing backwards in the Great flood of 1927. History Channel has a 20 minute segment on engineering disasters interviewing the old fella pictured above. He was boating on the lake when the salt dome collapsed. 0 injuries or fatalities is the highlight of the story

Please tell me more about this. I thought the water flowed South during the ‘27 flood.

Could you be thinking of the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-12 ?
